KEY POINTS:
Former New Zealand forward Sean Marks made his second National Basketball Association appearance for the Phoenix Suns this week in a comfortable defeat of the Minnesota Timberwolves 131-102.
The injury-plagued Marks logged five minutes for two points, a block and a rebound after the Suns went on a 31-2 blitz late in the third quarter on Monday.
He hasn't been required in the club's two games since.
Marks' only other appearance in his first season at the in-form Suns was on December 26, when he played seven minutes for two points against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Phoenix have won 15 consecutive games on the way to their way to a 34-8 winning record.
